Narrative
The first partner spins to get a group of coins. They write a question that compares the amount they spun to a different group of coins that they make up.


Standard options: 
A. Tell and write time from analog and digital clocks to the nearest five minutes, using a.m. and p.m.
B. Solve word problems involving dollar bills, quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies, using $ and ¢ symbols appropriately. Example: If you have 2 dimes and 3 pennies, how many cents do you have?


Thought: In this activity, students write word problems that compare coin amounts.
Answer: B

problem_activity: Problem 1
A quadratic equation is shown below.
$${x^2=(2x-9)^2}$$
a.  Solve this equation by expanding and then factoring.
b.  Solve this equation by taking the square root of each side.
Problem 2
A physics teacher put a ball at the top of a ramp and let it roll down toward the floor. The class determined that the height of the ball could be represented by the equation
$${h=-16t^2+4}$$
, where the height,
$$h$$
, is measured in feet from the ground and time,
$$t$$
, is measured in seconds.
